Alanis Morissette, musician and mom of one year old Ever Imre-Morissette-Treadway, just announced Summer 2012 tour dates in the UK for her “Flavors Of Entanglement” album. The crooner and wife of rapper Mario “Souleye” Treadway has been busy planning three live gigs lined up for June, living the domestic life, and finishing up a 31 song follow up to her seventh studio album. The yet to be titled album is scheduled to release in conjunction with the tour.
Tickets for Morissette’s shows include venues at the Academy Birmingham on June 23, Apollo Manchester on June 26, and Academy Brixton on June 27. Tickets for the shows will be available for purchase on Friday, February 10, 2012 at 9 a.m. GMT.

In a drunken moment, Kid Rock lit up a stogie at a Travis Tritt show in Detroit on Friday, January 13,2012. The venue was within a nonsmoking facility at the Andiamo Celebrity Showroom in Warren, Michigan and in a highly intoxicated state, Kid Rock fired up his cigar just 15 minutes into the performance. Concert attendees were fuming and filed several complaints with the Health Department.
In customary Kid fashion, the 40 year old singer responded to the claims with a giant apology and a one finger salute. He said “My most sincere apologies to the patrons I may have offended, and a big middle finger in advance to all the haters and attorneys who will somehow try to find an easy paycheck in all this.” Kid furthered with “I doubt I’m the first one to ever make a bad decision while being intoxicated.”
Time to weigh in: what was in the cigar? Was it tobacco? Or was it another kind of grass?
